Helstar is a heavy metal band from Houston, Texas. Their musical style is generally considered to be power metal.
[edit] History
After being separated for 19 years, the original lineup (not seen since Remnants of War) reformed in 2006 and announced they would begin touring. Helstar was one of the classic American power metal bands of the eighties. Though superstardom eluded them, their five albums garnered critical praise and they were a fan favorite throughout their career, in addition to being an influence on many a nineties band. The band broke up following the departure of the sole remaining original member, vocalist James Rivera, who went on to front several bands in his career.
